Iran, Pakistan agree to improve border security

ISLAMABAD: Iran on Tuesday emphasised the need for improving coordination with Pakistan to stren­gthen border security and prevent cross-border terrorist attacks, assuring Pakistani leaders of its commitment to denying terrorists any space to target its neighbouring country.

The pledge was made during a visit by Iranian Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi, whose discussions in Islamabad centered on regional security concerns, including Israeli genocide in Palestine, invasion of Lebanon and latest aggression against Iran.

Speaking at a dinner reception at the Iranian embassy at the conclusion of his visit, Mr Araghchi acknowledged ‘gaps’ in the coordination between Iran and Pakistan on border security, though he noted the ‘will and good determination’ among the leadership to address the issue.
